Introduction

After years of dedicated study of the intricate journey of healing from trauma, I’ve discovered that the path to healing is as unique as the individuals it touches. It’s a path that isn’t defined by a singular destination, but rather a continuous journey.

Trauma fractures our sense of self and leaves us isolated from our ourselves, God, and  others. To truly heal, we must  integrate our Brain/mind, Heart and Body. Which lead me to build a program called the Renewed Hope Approach.

At the heart of this approach lies a commitment to post traumatic growth, using a comprehensive foundation that paves the way for holistic healing and spiritual growth.

You are welcome to explore this space where integration is our guiding principle, and restoration is a continuous, beautiful unfolding.

FAQs

The Renewed Hope Approach is a faith-based, trauma-informed journey designed to help you heal, grow, and reconnect with God’s purpose for your life. Rooted in biblical truth and trauma care principles, this process guides you through a holistic path of restoration—from surviving to rebuilding and ultimately thriving.

We recommend moving through the three stages of the Renewed Hope Approach over the course of one year, using our three accompanying workbooks:

  1. Restore – Healing from loss and naming your pain

  2. Receive – Rediscovering your identity and what you bring to the world

  3. Rebuild – Embracing your renewed calling with vision and purpose

Each stage includes weekly reflection, practical tools, and spiritual practices. You can go through this process on your own, with a friend, or as part of a guided cohort.

Throughout the journey, you’ll be supported with:

  • Active listening and reflective conversation

  • Spiritual tools, including healing prayer and Scripture meditation

  • Somatic practices to help regulate your nervous system and reconnect your body and emotions

  • Practical goal-setting to help you take intentional steps toward wholeness

Whether you’re navigating grief, transition, burnout, or spiritual confusion, the Renewed Hope Approach offers a clear, Christ-centered path forward—so you can walk in healing, clarity, and renewed hope.

The Renewed Hope Approach is designed for individuals seeking healing, clarity, and growth through a faith-based, trauma-informed lens. Ideal participants include:

  • Those navigating life transitions, loss, or past unresolved trauma

  • Church leaders, caregivers, and ministry workers seeking personal renewal

  • Anyone ready to explore their story, embrace healing, and rediscover purpose

  • Individuals willing to engage in reflective work and walk the journey of restoration with Christ at the center

Whether you’re beginning your healing journey or seeking deeper integration after a season of transition, the Renewed Hope Approach offers a gentle, structured path forward.

The Renewed Hope Approach offers more than traditional talk therapy—it’s a whole-person, faith-based path to healing. You’ll experience transformation by reconnecting your head, heart, and body through:

  • Trauma-informed teaching rooted in Scripture

  • Healing prayer and spiritual reflection

  • Somatic practices that help realign the nervous system and restore a sense of safety

  • Space to process your story with grace, truth, and community support

This approach helps you move from feeling stuck or fragmented to walking in renewed clarity, purpose, and connection with God.

While there isn’t formal research published yet on the Renewed Hope Approach as a whole, each part of the process is grounded in scientifically supported practices and faith-based principles. Our method integrates:

  • Trauma-informed care

  • Somatic practices for nervous system regulation

  • Narrative and reflective exercises

  • Spiritual disciplines like lament, healing prayer, and Scripture meditation

All of these are widely supported in both clinical studies and spiritual formation literature.

What we do know from experience is this:
100% of our clients who complete the program report greater clarity, emotional resilience, and a stronger connection to their faith and purpose.

Take Shannon’s story, for example.
Before working together, Shannon was overwhelmed by uncertainty, struggling with self-acceptance, and unsure where God was in her story. Through the Renewed Hope Approach, she discovered her unique strengths, reconnected with her sense of calling, and gained confidence in her next steps. Not only did she find a fulfilling job, but she also experienced a deep, personal transformation—embracing herself and her faith with renewed hope and freedom.

Absolutely—you can! In fact, that’s exactly what we hope for.

The Renewed Hope Approach is designed to be reproducible and community-centered. We don’t want to keep this to ourselves. Our heart is to equip others—like you—to bring healing and hope into your own circles of influence.

As a leader in trauma-informed faith-based training, we offer a comprehensive and accessible framework that blends essential mental health principles with Biblical truth. Through our facilitator training and resources, you’ll be equipped to:

  • Lead individuals and small groups through each stage of the Renewed Hope Approach

  • Create emotionally and spiritually safe environments

  • Support others as they process grief, identity, and renewal

  • Foster a trauma-informed culture within your church or ministry

Whether you’re a pastor, small group leader, counselor, or simply someone who wants to walk alongside others with compassion and wisdom—we’re here to support you every step of the way.
